Book Synopsis Preparing to Plant Tropical Trees by : Kenneth Alan Longman
Download or read book Preparing to Plant Tropical Trees written by Kenneth Alan Longman and published by Commonwealth Secretarial. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Manual is the fourth in a series of readable, well illustrated handbooks for propagating and planting tropical trees.The five Manuals have been designed to provide clear and concise information on how to select, grow, plant and care for tropical trees. They are intended for anyone interested in growing trees, from the small-holder to the large-scale grower, from local communities to national governments and from school and further education teachers to research and extension staff of agricultural and forestry departments. They provide illustrated, step-by-step instructions, practical guidelines and an outline of the thought process lying behind them.Manual 4 is concerned with the key choices that lie between propagation of good planting stock, and its planting and successful establishment. These usually include:• good communication between all those with an interest• some understanding of how tropical ecosystems function• a consideration of the type of planting site• choosing which groups of trees to plant• deciding on a suitable growing system for the young trees• preparing the site for plantingThe procedures described in this series of Manuals may be used with the majority of woody species to provide diverse seedling or clonal mixtures. They include techniques for ‘domestication’, so that superior planting stock can increasingly be used – this can help to capture more rapidly the great potential for multiple usefulness offered by tropical trees, while also encouraging conservation of their genetic resources.

Book Synopsis Growing Good Tropical Trees for Planting by : Kenneth Alan Longman
Download or read book Growing Good Tropical Trees for Planting written by Kenneth Alan Longman and published by Commonwealth Secretariat. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Manual is the third in a series of readable, well illustrated handbooks about propagating and planting tropical trees.The five Manuals have been designed to provide clear and concise information on how to select, grow, plant and care for tropical trees, in both moist and drier parts of the tropics. They are intended for anyone interested in growing trees, from the small-holder to the large-scale grower, from local communities to national governments and from school and further education teachers to research and extension staff of agricultural and forestry departments. They provide illustrated, step-by-step instructions, practical guidelines and an outline of the thought processes behind them.Manual 3 deals with the all-important stage of the tree nursery. Growing good planting stock that is likely to establish successfully in the field depends on:• choosing a suitable site for the tree nursery• having some understanding of how tropical trees grow• selecting appropriate genetic origins of seeds and cuttings• producing young trees with favourable root systems• recognising the important relationships between trees and micro-organisms• building a well-trained nursery team• looking after the young trees carefullyThe procedures described in this series of Manuals may be used with the majority of woody species to provide diverse seedling or clonal mixtures. They include techniques for ‘domestication’, so that superior planting stock can increasingly be used. This can help to capture more rapidly the great potential for multiple usefulness offered by tropical trees, while also encouraging conservation of their genetic resources.
Book Synopsis Tropical Community Tree Guide by : Kelaine E. Vargas
Download or read book Tropical Community Tree Guide written by Kelaine E. Vargas and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even as they increase the beauty of our surroundings, trees provide us with a great many ecosystem services, incl. air quality improvement, energy conservation, stormwater interception, and carbon dioxide reduction. These benefits must be weighed against the costs of maintaining trees, including planting, pruning, irrigation, admin., pest control, liability, cleanup, and removal. This report presents benefits and costs for representative small, medium, and large trees in the Tropical region based on research carried out in Honolulu, Hawaii. Average annual net benefits increase with tree size and differ based on location:. Two hypothetical examples of planting projects are described to illustrate how the data in this guide can be adapted to local uses.
Book Synopsis Raising Seedlings of Tropical Trees by : Kenneth Alan Longman
Download or read book Raising Seedlings of Tropical Trees written by Kenneth Alan Longman and published by Commonwealth Secretariat. This book was released on 2003 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planting tropical trees is often hampered by the difficulty of obtaining enough good seed of the right species. After describing the process of sexual reproduction in trees, this manual first looks at the possibilities for stimulating flower formation and for increasing the setting of fruits. It provides all the information necessary to choose the best sources for seeds, and to select the best seeds for a particular planting site. Practical instructions are given on how best to germinate the seeds, and how to nurture and care for the young seedlings.
Book Synopsis Prospects and Utilization of Tropical Plantation Trees by : Liew Kang Chiang
Download or read book Prospects and Utilization of Tropical Plantation Trees written by Liew Kang Chiang and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Large numbers of tropical trees from natural forests or plantation forest are available for human consumption and management. This book focuses on the prospects and utilization of tropical plantation trees in context of economic and business, planting, managing stocks, and uses of trees converted to various wood-based products. It provides information on key areas of tropical plantation trees including growth performance, nursery practices, soil properties, planting stock production, raw material cellulose, anatomy, pulping and papermaking, fiber modification, and properties of wood composites. Features: Comprehensive information on prospects and utilization of tropical plantation tree species. Features information on potential products derived from tropical plantation trees including cellulose-based wood products, particleboard with bioplastic binder, and laminated veneer lumber. Discusses species usage of economic importance other than wood production. Presents information on nursery practices, growth performance, and soil properties of tropical trees. Illustrates methodologies for repeating investigations on work that has been done previously in tropical tree research. This book introduces information for entrepreneurs or researchers before undertaking work with these tree species illustrating technical methodologies allowing for repetition or previous successful works. This information proves valuable to researchers if further work is needed for improvement on these plant-derived products.
